What Would You Say?

What would you say if morning’s blurred And scattered light is grey Or you won’t bother with a word, Would simply look away? What would you say, if in the news There’s nothing really new? More grief and troubles to amuze Like they were never few Or will you say a word or three About the evening’s damp Or maybe it’s suffice to see A burn of midnight lamp? You need more wine, I want more bread I miss more music too What would you say, if all is said And done, like you would do? There will be winds, and bending trees And sun, and rain, and snow There will be ships in deep blue seas And anything you know But one day you’ll be gone, my friend The same relates to me What would you say, if there’s no end To lives, that we can't see?
